Clinical Trial Performance Metrics

The JHU-TIC are involved with the TIN Metrics Working Group, whose aim is to identify a framework for collecting and reviewing trial performance metrics that can be used to assess and evaluate clinical trial performance for studies that are approved for services or consultations within the TIN. We will also use these metrics to evaluate the impact of Operational Innovations within the TIN.

The JHU-Tufts TIC, in collaboration with the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development completed a Demonstration Project to identify key priority metrics that indicate clinical trial performance. Using both prospective landscape scan and retrospective regression analysis, we identified a set of 11 metrics, listed in the table below. These metrics will be used as the basis for identifying key metrics to collect for full implementation and service, and will be mapped to the TIN Operational Innovations to ensure we are correctly evaluating how the TIN is improving the quality, operational efficiency and adding innovation to clinical trials.
